Now that Gu Zhi has changed, he's no longer afraid of her laughing at him.

Gu Zhi saw that he had taken out his phone and carefully changed the nicknames he had given her in his contacts.

It's like performing some particularly important ceremony.

I'll change her contact name to "Baby Wife".

He manages to balance having a baby and a wife.

She laughed even harder.

It's also incredibly sweet.

Even as she was laughing so happily, Gu Zhi suddenly said seriously:

"Honey, will you come with me to pay our respects to the headmistress and the others?"

"When they died, they were all quite worried about me."

"They would feel more at ease if they saw you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yanshen naturally became even more serious.

He nodded very solemnly: "Yes."

He was also increasingly able to feel Gu Zhi's love for him.

Although Gu Zhi always liked to tease him, she had long ago told him that she loved him many times a day.

But recently, he has become increasingly aware of her love for him.

It even made him certain that Gu Zhi loved him very much.

……

The next day, Lu Yanshen accompanied Gu Zhi to pay respects to Cao Mama and the others.

Since he was going to pass by the Imperial Capital Orphanage, Lu Yanshen bought many gifts for the children there.

Dean Cui couldn't help but tell Lu Yanshen how Gu Zhi had injured her leg before.

"She did it all to save these children."

"When the orphanage took the children on a field trip, Zhizhi went along too."

"Who knew a landslide would occur, and huge rocks would roll down."

"She rescued all the children, shielding some of them with her body, but her leg was crushed by the boulder."

Fortunately, there was a smaller rock blocking the fall, so the weight of the boulder didn't completely crush her legs.

"Otherwise, it would definitely not just be a serious soft tissue injury."

Actually, this was already mentioned in the previous investigation report on Gu Zhi's past.

But Lu Yanshen still felt extremely distressed.

Gu Zhi is so kind.

Lu Yanshen and Gu Zhi first went to pay their respects to Dean Cao's mother.

The dean's mother has a grave and a tombstone.

It was also at the grave of the dean's mother that Gu Zhi said to Lu Yanshen:

"The hospital director's mother passed away from liver cancer. It was already in its late stage when it was discovered, and there was no cure at all."

"They didn't find it during the initial physical exam."

That's why I studied medicine.

"I've actually been trying to crack this all these years, and I've been doing research in this area."

"My project team is still conducting this research according to my research plan."

"I want to make a breakthrough."

"Even if we can't completely conquer cancer, we hope to develop a device that can quickly and accurately detect early-stage cancer."

Gu Zhi also spoke frankly:

"Since my mother and master passed away, I have no more worries."

"I even feel that even if something unexpected happens, I can leave this world in peace."

Lu Yanshen felt a pang of heartache and immediately held Gu Zhi's hand tightly.

Gu Zhi smiled and said:

"Don't rush to feel sorry for me, that was back then."

"Later I ran into Teacher Yan again."

"My teacher was very good to me; he taught me everything and protected me."

"He not only treated me as his student, but also loved me like a daughter."

"But he passed away last year too."

"And this year, I gained my grandfather, you, and many other people who care about me..."

"I think I really can't change my hedonistic personality."

"I will still live for the moment, and I will still speak up immediately if anything happens, without hiding anything, so as to avoid any regrets in case something unexpected happens one day."

Lu Yanshen immediately said, "No need to change anything! You really don't need to change anything!"

He never intended for her to change.

As long as she's truly happy, that's all that matters.

Gu Zhi smiled and said:

"I know, you said it yesterday, you've done it the same way before, and you didn't ask me to change anything."

"But I want to tell you everything I'm thinking."

Lu Yanshen held her hand even tighter.

The old master's ashes were scattered around the Taoist temple and have long been blown away by the wind, so there is no need to worship them.

Gu Zhi then led Lu Yanshen for a walk around the Taoist temple.

It all comes down to seeing the master and worshipping the master.

The wind was strong as Gu Zhi and Lu Yanshen walked around the Taoist temple.

Gu Zhi felt the breeze, and her face immediately lit up with a bright smile, just like Lu Yanshen's.

"My master saw it! He knows I brought you here!"

Lu Yanshen felt extremely sorry for her, but his cold eyes were full of smiles as he nodded: "Yes."

Then, Gu Zhi and Lu Yanshen went to pay their respects to their teacher, Yan Xuexin.

Finally, they went to pay respects to the adoptive parents who had taken Gu Zhi in and brought her to the capital.

The adoptive parents were buried together.

Standing in front of her adoptive parents' graves, Gu Zhi also spoke a few words to Lu Yanshen:

"Perhaps to others, my adoptive mother was very irresponsible. She committed suicide for love and didn't care about me, her adopted daughter."

"But it is precisely because she and my adoptive father are so loving that she wanted to adopt a child."

"Then they adopted me."

"They were very kind to me; it was the first time I felt warmth since I got lost."

Lu Yanshen was so heartbroken that he could hardly bear to listen anymore.

That was indeed the first time she had felt warmth since she got lost.

But he also knew that Gu Zhi really wanted to tell him everything she was thinking.

He didn't stop her, but told Gu Zhi not to say anything.

They listened quietly.

His hand remained tightly clasped with Gu Zhi's.

"They were the ones who brought me to the capital."

"I'm really grateful to them."

"However, having had it is enough; I'm not greedy."

"So, I refused to be adopted after that."

Lu Yanshen finally understood.

Gu Zhi did indeed long for a complete family and loving parents.

Having had it once was enough; that's why she never agreed to be adopted again.

If we were once happy and content, how could we possibly feel that this is enough?

Perhaps her past experiences were too painful, which is why she is so easily satisfied.

There's no such thing as always expecting anything.

Lu Yanshen's heartache still overflowed.

His cold eyes were filled with heartache for her.

Gu Zhi, however, acted as if nothing was wrong and asked him with a smile, "Would you like to go take a look at my old house?"

Lu Yanshen immediately nodded: "Mm."

Gu Zhi owns many houses.

However, she had been living in the first house she bought.

The first house wasn't big, but it was very fulfilling.

It was decorated in an extremely warm and cozy style, just like the room of a princess who was pampered and raised.

Gu Zhi said:

"I used to dislike big houses because I thought they were cold."

"Even if I bought it, I've hardly ever lived in that kind of house."

"But I like it very much now."

"Maybe it's because our house is very big."

Lu Yanshen could no longer control himself and immediately pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly.

Gu Zhi hugged him tightly as well.

But he had a big smile on his face.

He loved her so much, and she wanted him to know that she didn't just say she loved him.

She truly loved him just as much.

That's why she told him all her thoughts so openly.

And being so smart, he must know this by now.
